Content ModerationConsumer FacingVerified

Embark integrates with WebPurify, a third-party AI-powered content moderation service, for filtering user-generated text content in their games, as evidenced by their open-source API client library.

Details

Creative GenEmbark developed and open-sourced a texture synthesis tool in Rust that generates new textures from example images using a multiresolution stochastic algorithm, enabling artists to create variations from a single source texture.OtherThe Finals integrates NVIDIA's DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) technology, which uses AI neural networks to upscale lower-resolution frames in real-time, boosting performance by approximately 2x at 4K with ray tracing enabled.Data AnalysisEmbark has developed prototype tools that use semantic and visual similarity algorithms to suggest relevant game assets to creators — for example, recognizing that a bottle is semantically similar to a bucket (both containers) or that a dead tree is visually similar to a lamp post.
